  1. Abbreviations : IR incidence rate, NOS not otherwise specified
  2. aPituitary tumors, tumors associated with AIDS, recurrence of tumors, and metastatic tumors were not included in the registry.
  3. bUnique astrocytoma variants correspond to subependymoma (n = 12) subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (n = 7) and pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (n = 1).
  4. cMixed gliomas correspond to anaplastic oligoastrocytoma (n = 43) and oligoastrocytoma (n = 54); Germ cell tumors and cysts correspond to germinoma (n = 7), mature teratoma (n = 2), teratoma (n = 1), dermoïd cyst (n = 8), and choriocarcinoma (n = 1).
